Embedded videos problem...

**Lev Yashin** · 01/02/2012, 9:23 PM

Maybe it's just me but lately I have been have an issue with watching videos on the site

Where about 2/5ths of the video seems to be missing this is only on Firefox and it is fine on IE but i generally use Firefow to browse...

Thanks

Is this what you're talking about? Same thing for me with Chrome & FF. Just tried IE, which I never use, but it's the same as the other two.

Running AdBlock?

I was, but uninstalled it. Still the same.

Is it in a first or last post by any chance? That's why I suggested adblock, it looks like an ad overlaying a flash video.

It is an Ad covering the first and last post, however, it's just blank space overlaying the ones in between now. This was happening before I messed with adblock too.

The blank space is caused by the ad overlay, so if AdBlock isn't blocking it, something else must be?

**strangeirish** · 09/02/2012, 12:14 AM

Something has to be blocking it, but I've no idea what. Strange that it's on the ones between the first and last posts where there are no ads though.

**dahamsta** · 09/02/2012, 8:26 PM

You're saying it's occuring on any/all posts in a thread?

**strangeirish** · 10/02/2012, 1:33 AM

With regard to embedded videos,that is correct.

**dahamsta** · 10/02/2012, 11:56 AM

Very odd. Anyone else seeing this? (Apart from those that already reported it.)

What OS / browser / versions strangeirish? shannonman?

**strangeirish** · 10/02/2012, 12:17 PM

XP-Most recent versions of Chrome & FF. Have IE8 also, but rarely use it.

Edit: Just to add something here. If I'm responding to a post in the video thread and I preview my response before posting, I can see the complete videos in the thread. Something up with the embed code?

**dahamsta** · 10/02/2012, 5:09 PM

And this is happening with both FF and Chrome strangeirish? That's really very peculiar. Anyone else with XP test this for me? It works ok for me in FF, Chrome and IE, on Win7.

Sorry to keep going around in circles with this, but I can't figure it out. Can you link me to some examples please? I know the video you've screenshotted above, but I can't find it on Foot.ie.

Didn't you think to read the URL bar in the screenshot?

Just going to stick one here and see if it does it.

Edit:And...I can see the full video in this thread! WTF!

Edit2: Well, it's gone back to the overlay again.
